It was ok, nothing great. On a noisy road, very small rooms. The front desk gal was less than friendly or helpful (one of them, the other was very cordial). Apparently you’re not allowed to sit outside after 9pm on a Friday night, therefore, you can’t enjoy the fire pits, etc (which you have to ask for assurance to use, and there isn’t always someone there to do this). All in all, for the price, I should have stayed at the Hyatt FOR THE SAME PRICE!! Upside, it was pretty clean, and the foliage on the grounds is very pretty.

The property was decent for sleeping and showering, which was all we needed it for. The room service is limited and per the notice in the room only available from 6am-11am. Our room looked like it was just surfaced cleaned. It was raining during our stay so we were unable to ultize the fire pit area or pool. Parking is also limited. The breakfast only consisted of pre-packaged cereal (coco puffs & raisin brand), bagels, bread, yogurt, pre-packaged oatmeal, pre-packaged muffins, and containers of milk, coffee and juices ( apple & cranberry).

Upon arrival, the receptionist was very brusque and not very nice, people have bad days I know but it was a little disconcerting when you work in customer service. We specifically picked this hotel because it was pet friendly, and when I got there, I was told the suite I selected was the “only one that was not pet friendly”, in a condescending way. I had no idea and there was nothing on my Expedia choices to delineate which rooms were or were not pet friendly. I was put in a downgraded room, and not offered the price difference. I was there for my anniversary and wanted the better room, but I had no choice and the receptionist treated me as if I was the idiot that had made some kind of mistake. The new room was fine, but there were areas that were worn, see the pics of the chair and the sink. For $400 a night I expected more. The Property was dated and looked more like a motel. The breakfast was extremely lackluster- cereal, stale bagels, and overripe bananas. Wouldn’t recommend for the price, or the service.

Dear Lisa, we sincerely apologize for the less-than-ideal experience you encountered during your recent stay with us. It deeply saddens us to hear that we fell short of your expectations. Your feedback regarding our receptionist's unpleasant demeanor, the confusion surrounding pet-friendly accommodations, and the subsequent pricing discrepancy is duly noted, and we will address this issue with our staff to ensure it doesn't recur. We understand the significance of special occasions like anniversaries, and it's regrettable that we couldn't fulfill your preference for the suite. As for the condition of the room and the breakfast quality, we intend to take your comments seriously and assure you we will work diligently to make the necessary improvements by all means. Your satisfaction is paramount to us, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back for a much-improved experience that genuinely reflects the standard of hospitality we aim to uphold.Kind regards,Customer Care TeamMariposa Inn and Suites

The pictures shown of the hotel must've been taken right after construction as my room was much more dated from what I saw online. When checking in, the front desk woman was somewhat cold and seemed like she didn't want to be bothered. The shower water was very messed up. Very tough to get water less than scalding hot. The worst part was the mold! There was a skylight that was elevated about 3-4 feet from the bathroom ceiling so naturally all steam would travel up there with nowhere to go. I would NEVER go back to this place.

The Mariposa Inn is very clean and very cute, with lots of fun touches like sitting areas and swan towels around the pool. It's clear they have been working on giving it an updated boutique feel. The simple breakfast made traveling with the family much easier. My only complaint is the bedding— the pillows are horrible and there were no extra blankets in the room. That said, I would happily return, but bring my own pillows!

Small room. Only chair was a desk chair. Shower rod anchors were broken causing it to slant down. As a result the shower curtain slid down in the middle allowing the shower water to spray the bathroom floor at both ends of the tub.

This was a cute and lively hotel in Monterey. The Inn was located in a great location and was a short drive to the California coast line and Big Sur national park as well as various food/grocery options. The Inn was so clean and decorated very nicely. There was also free breakfast which was a pleasant surprise. The staff were nice and accommodating which added positively to the overall experience.

The doors were on the outside which none of the pictures showed. And the jacuzzi tub was run down, the outer layer was coming off and it had soap scum buildup. We didn’t even use the jacuzzi tub it looked so bad and that was why we had got the room in the first place. Also the bathroom door wouldn’t shut. Other than that it wasn’t bad. But was close to a Main Street and was noisy at night.
